The 2018 Beatrix Potter Mrs Tittlemouse 50 Pence

Description

Beatrix Potter tales have long been favourites with children. Bedtime stories weren’t complete until a tale of adventure from the Beatrix Potter series.

This 2018 limited edition sterling silver coin finished to Proof standard features the house-proud Mrs Tittlemouse in watercolour illustration. A reflection on Beatrix Potter’s desire for a tidy household herself Mrs Tittlemouse lives in a “funny house” of long passages and storerooms beneath a hedge. Her efforts to keep her dwelling tidy are thwarted by insect and arachnid intruders who create all sorts of messes about the place.

Presented in a clear acrylic presentation case for safekeeping, it is also accompanied by a small booklet with information on the story and quotes from the original tales.
